  Speaker 1: The mind is the most delicate, most sensitive instrument in
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: all creation. Through nutritional research, we've learned that the body
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: reflects the diet fed the body, physical stamina, resistance to disease,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: body size, even how long we live are all closely
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: related to what we eat. The body is what the
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: body is fed. By the same token, the mind is
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: what the mind is fed. Mind food, of course, doesn't
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: come in packages, and you can't buy it at the store.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Mind food is your environment, all the countless things that
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: influence your conscious and subconscious thought. Each of us inherited
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: a certain capacity to develop. But how much of that
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: capacity we have developed, and the way we have developed
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: that capacity, depends on the kind of mind food we
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: feed it. The mind reflects what its environment feeds it,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: just as surely as the body reflects.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: The food you feed it.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: As the saying goes, you are a product of your environment.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Mark it well.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Environment shapes us, makes us think the way we do.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: Try to name just one habit or one mannerism you have.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: That you did not pick up from other people, Relatively
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: minor things like the way we walk, cough, hold a cup,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Our preferences for music, literature, entertainment, clothing all stem in
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: very large part from environment. More important, the size of
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: your thinking, your goals, your attitudes, your very personality is
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: formed by your environment. Prolonged association with negative people makes
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: us think negatively. Close contact with petty individuals develops petty
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: habits in us. On the bright side, companionship with people
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: with big ideas raises the level of our thinking.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: Close contact with ambitious.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: People gives us ambition. You will change over the months
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: and years. This we know, but how you will change
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: depends on your future environment. The mind food you feed
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: yourself recondition yourself for success. The number one obstacle on
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: the road to high level success is the feeling that
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: major accomplishment is beyond reach.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: This attitude stems from.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Many, many suppressive forces that direct our thinking toward mediocre levels.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: To understand these suppressive forces, let's go back to the
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: time we were children. As children, all of us set
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: high goals at a surprisingly young age. We made plans
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: to conquer the unknown, to be leaders, to attain positions
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: of high importance, to do exciting and stimulating things, to
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: become wealthy and famous. In short, to be first, biggest,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: and best, and in our blessed ignorance, we saw our
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: way clear to accomplish these goals.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: But what happened.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Long before we reached the age when we could begin
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: to work toward our great objectives. A multitude of suppressive
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: influences went to work.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: From all sides. We heard it's.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Foolish to be a dreamer, and that our ideas were impractical, stupid, naive,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: or foolish. That you have got to have money to
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: go places, that luck determines who gets ahead, or you've
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: got to have important friends, or you're too old or
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: too young. As a result of being bombarded with the
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: you can't get ahead, so don't bother to try propaganda,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: most people you know can be classified into three groups.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: First group, those who surrendered completely. The majority of people
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: are convinced deep down inside that they haven't got what
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: it takes that real success, real accomplishment is for others
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: who are lucky or fortunate in.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Some special respect.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: You can easily spot these people because they go to
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: great lengths to rationalize their status and explain.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: How happy they really are.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: This group is, in reality, just the other extreme of
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: the discontented job switcher searching for opportunity, rationalizing yourself into
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: a rut, which incidentally has been described as a grave
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: with both ends open, can be as bad as wandering
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: aimlessly hoping opportunity will.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Somehow someday hit you in the face.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Second group, those who surrendered partially. A second but much
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: smaller group enters adult life with considerable hope for success.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: These people prepare themselves, they work, they plan, but after
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: a decade or so, resistance begins to build up. This
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: group then decides that greater success is not worth the effort.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: These people aren't satisfied because deep down they know they
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: have surrendered.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: This group includes.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: Many talented, intelligent people who elect.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: To crawl through life because they are afraid to stand
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: up and run.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Third group, those who never surrender.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: This group, maybe two or three percent of the total,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: doesn't let pessimism dictate, doesn't believe in surrendering to suppressive forces,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: doesn't believe in crawling.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Instead, these people live and breathe success.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: This group is the happiest because it accomplishes the most.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: These people find life stimulating, rewarding, worthwhile.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: These people look.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Forward to each new day, each new encounter with other
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: people as adventures to be lived fully. Let's be honest,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: all of us would like to be in the third group,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: the one that finds greater success each year, the one
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: that does things and gets results. To get and stay
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: in this group, however, we must fight off the suppressive
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: influences of our environment. Remember, people who tell you it
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: cannot be done almost always are unsuccessful. People are strictly
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: average or mediocre at best in terms of accomplishment.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: The opinions of these people can be poisoned.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Develop a defense against people who want to convince you
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: that you can't do it. Accept negative advice only as
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: a challenge to prove that you can do it.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: Be extra extra cautious about this.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Don't let negative thinking people negators destroy your plan to
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: think yourself to success.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Negators are everywhere.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: They seem to delight in sabotaging the positive progress of others.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: They feel inadequate themselves, so they want to make a
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: mediocre person out of you. Be extra careful study negators.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Don't let them destroy your plans for success. How we
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: think is directly affected by the group we're in. Be
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: sure you're in the flock that thinks right. Ignore such
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: negative thinkers in your midst For often the remarks made
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: in your direction aren't so personal as you might at
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: first think. They are merely a projection of the speaker's
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: own feeling of failure and discouragement. Don't let negative thinkers
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: pull you down to their level. Let them slide by
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: cling to people who think progressively, move upward with them.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: You can do it simply by thinking right. Do Select
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: friends who stand above heady, unimportant things.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Guard your psychological environment.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Select friends who are interested in positive things, friends who really.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Do want to see you succeed.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Remember, people who tell you it cannot be done almost
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: always are unsuccessful people.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: Recondition yourself for success.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: Be environment conscious.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Just as body diet makes the body, mind diet makes
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: the mind. Games in u
